Parents try to teach their children right from wrong so that they do not make mistakes that could have serious consequences. Many students are raised with parents who tell them the right things to do in life. Children learn a lot from their parents growing up. Parents teach them to have morals and to always make the best decisions but people are not always perfect. Parents tell their children that it is very bad to cheat in school for any reason. Many times, for example they tell them stories about what happens to students when they cheat and maybe their own personal experiences when they cheated. Students should do their best and not have to think about cheating in school.
Students face peer pressure about cheating in many different levels of school. Students may not have studied as much as they have liked for that exam and are looking for alternative ways in doing well. For example, a friend might have just taken an exam in the previous class and then he or she will come to tell you what was on the exam. A student may have found a siblings old exam and will use it to study for the test. Another example is students developing a cheating system while taking the test. A cough may mean the letter a.) on the exam, a yawn could be the letter b.), a drop of a pencil may be the letter c.) and so on. More
